Museum of Cape May County, NJ – December 4, 2017 – Sturdy Savings Bank presented a Sponsorship Check to the Museum of Cape May County’s newest exhibit, “Bank on It!” – featuring over 40 Victorian mechanical banks of the 19th and 20th century.

The exhibit is on display now through January 19 at 504 Route 9 North in Cape May Court House. These mechanical machines, with illustrations of animals, magicians, people and places, will take spectators back to a time when a penny saved was a penny earned and children were taught the lesson of depositing their coins into their toy banks.

Sturdy Savings Bank, Member FDIC, was built on a simple principle: serving the community. Their mission remains the same ~ some 95 years later. Sturdy employees are committed to neighborhood service. You’ll find them where it matters most: your little league fields, senior citizen centers, schools, firehouses and churches. They’ll be at the AARP luncheons, the local symphony concerts and the food pantry fundraisers. Sturdy has grown from a small-town savings and loan association to a local, full service bank that understands there is no place like “home,” and they are dedicated to their role as a community neighbor, partner and leader.
